Grilled Fish With Cumin-Lemon Rub - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 teaspoons ground cumin, to taste
    4 small onions, pureed
    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
    4 teaspoons olive oil
    4 small mild-flavoured fish or (4 ounce) fillets (such as flounder, orange roughy, catfish or grouper)
    lemon wedge
Preparation
    Prepare grill.
    Soak eight or 12 8-inch wooden skewers in water for 10 minutes.
    In a small bowl or cup, mix cumin with onion puree and a little lemon juice to make a paste.
    Add more juice as needed.
    Stir in oil.
    Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels.
    If using whole fish, cut a few deep slashes in the sides to allow the seasonings in and to speed cooking.
    Rub a little of the seasoning mixture on the whole fish, inside and out, or on both fillet sides.
    Thread fish on skewers (use an in-and-out\"basting stitch\") and grill over hot coals for about five minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
    The fish should still be moist.
    Serve hot with lemon wedges.
